I know exactly why you believe this but your attitude has very short term credibility which is quickly running out. We all know about recent Black history in the West but the idea that one group has to retain guilt for this history and be deprived of racial pride while everyone else can freely express it is bonkers. It is as racist as you can get. Slavery and subsequent persecution of Black people was a symptom of the prevailing circumstances. It was a consequence of human behaviour that has probably existed since there have been humans. It was a tiny blip in the grand scheme of history. If you think that one particular demographic should feel an endless responsibility for that and have to hang their heads till the end of time, then you are a lunatic.
Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (16 Apr 2019 5.05pm) There is more than a hint of original sin to the idea of white guilt. It also ignores the fact that almost everyone else is descended from a long line of serfs and peasants rather than exploitative fat cats. If any of my ancestors exploited anyone they must’ve been spectacularly bad at it because they didn’t leave me a pit to hiss in.

From a few years ago...the pushers of 'white guilt' doing a bit of perverse physical enactment. Whoever the parents of this child are they are a disgrace....child abuse. Edited by Stirlingsays (16 Apr 2019 5.44pm) Attachment: whiteguilt.JPG (107.07Kb)

Why not also assume a relationship to abolitionists, charity workers and other saintly individuals then we could all feel good about ourselves.

Well essentially you are on here stating that it's fine for black people to state 'black and proud' but there are 'racist attitudes' around saying 'white and proud'. I'm ok for others to conclude as to where the 'racism' is there. The previous posts are there to read. I defend your right to hold hypocritical views on race if you want to....you certainly aren't alone. But you are rightly open to criticism for these views from the right....well, I know some on the left who wouldn't like them as well. I asked you to tell me which Conservative in history has publicly stated your views on white people here. You failed to provide one. I certainly can't think of one and that's even amongst the ridiculous collection we have at the moment. Edited by Stirlingsays (16 Apr 2019 2.15pm) I think you are talking complete nonsense. No-where have I suggested that I even have a view on white people because I don't, anymore than I have a view on black people. No public figure can express views that don't exist! All I have said is that the two claims need to be seen in context because context matters. Both could be racist, just as both might not be. It is though more understandable for those who have suffered exclusion and prejudice to try to raise their profile by reacting to that prejudice than it is for those from that part of the community who created that prejudice in the first place. Exactly the same would apply if, in a predominately black skinned country, white skinned people were previously marginalised. Historically though that doesn't seem to have happened does it? "White and proud", as used today, communicates a distasteful message, even if you cannot recognise it, whilst "British and proud" does not. There is nothing hypocritical involved in facing up to the truth.

A historical passage of time and not an everlasting grudge, score to settle or to be ashamed of in generations before you were sperm.
